Ingredients

  • 2 scoops cake batter protein powder - 60 grams, The brand I used is Grenade. Substitute vanilla flavor if needed, and add 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract.
  • cups filtered milk - or milk of choice
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum - 2 grams
  • 10 drops liquid stevia - plus more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon sprinkles - to mix in

Instructions

  • Add all of the ice cream ingredients to a Ninja Creami ice cream container and blend them together with an immersion blender or coffee frother.
    2 scoops cake batter protein powder, 1½ cups filtered milk, ½ teaspoon xanthan gum, 10 drops liquid stevia
  • Seal the container with its lid and freeze upright on a flat surface for 24 hours or longer.
  • Remove the lid and check the surface. If it's uneven and has a hump, scrape it down with a spoon.
  • Insert the container into the outer bowl and secure the blade lid until it clicks.
  • Insert the outer bowl into the Ninja Creami machine and process it on Light Ice Cream mode.
  • (Optional) If the result is powdery or not creamy, put the lid back on and select Respin. It's a good idea to scape down the sides of the container at this point for any icy bits that have stuck to the container.
  • Make a hole in the center of the ice cream (if there isn't one already) by pushing the ice cream aside with a spoon.
  • Add your sprinkles to the center and spin it again by selecting Mix-In.
    1 tablespoon sprinkles
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Spin frozen solid. Never thaw first.
  • Powdery? Respin. Still dry? Splash of milk, respin again.
  • Full 24-hour freeze. No shortcuts.
  • Lumpy base equals grainy ice cream, blend it smooth.
  • Sprinkles on the final mix-in only.
Storage
  • Freezer, lid on, original tub, up to 2 weeks. Read about more ways here.
  • Make ahead up to a month; spin straight from frozen.
  • Respin to refresh. Don't repeatedly thaw and refreeze.
